Autoexposure Bracketing
When using autoexposure bracketing, the camera automatically changes the exposure level within
the set range (up to +/– 2 stops in 1/2-stop increments) for three successive frames. This is called
AEB (Auto Exposure Bracketing). The three bracketed shots are exposed in the selected drive mode
(
→ 63) in the following order: correct exposure, decreased exposure, and increased exposure.
Standard exposure (0) Decreased exposure (–1.0) Increased exposure (+1.0)
